[Micronet] Mac GUI LDAP Search Tool -- LDapper

Hi all:

Just in case this happens to be useful to someone else, I thought I’d share:

After poking around for quite a while this afternoon for a decent Mac GUI LDAP search tool (because not everyone’s comfortable with the command-line “ldapsearch” tool!), I finally discovered LDapper (http://carl-bell.baylor.edu/ReadMeFiles/LDapper.html). It’s by far the best of the bunch that I was able to discover this afternoon after doing a bunch of Googling.

(It’s nice enough that I might even start using it instead of ldapsearch myself!)

Cheers,

Ian

For a Java-only app, Apache Directory Studio also works reasonably well:

Re: [Micronet] Re: Mac GUI LDAP Search Tool -- LDapper

Thanks Karl—that’s actually one of the first I tried. When I tried ADS (on Mac OS X 10.11.4) with an authenticated bind, it just spun up my CPU to 100% and sat there until I killed it an hour or so later. Unauthenticated binds worked OK, though. Strange. As I actually prefer the LDapper interface, I’m personally not that inclined to spend too much time troubleshooting it.

I also tried Jxplorer, which worked OK, even with authenticated binds, but I didn’t like the UI as much.

Cheers,

Ian
